2 - Intro fails to name the school, district, and community.
0 - No introduction section is apparent.
Constructive comments about report's introduction:
Didn't feel the introduction was very clear. You stated what the context report was about, but failed to tell the reader an overview of the upcoming analysis, including the school,district, and the community. I think you can make the intro a little bit longer and stronger by adding a few more details about your school to grab the readers attention. Break down your report in your introduction. Overall Good Start.
Organization = 4/ 5 pts.
5 - Report includes an Introduction, a Conclusion, and sections for the School, District, and Community. Within each section, paragraphs logically group the information presented.
4 - Report includes all of the sections mentioned previously, but does not break down information into paragraphs within each section.
3 - Report is missing one of the sections.
2 - Report is missing more than one section.
0 - Report does not include any sections.
Strengths and constructive comments about report's organization:
Maybe be more specific on what each paragraph is about. Let the reader know what they are getting into. You have all sections needed, but I didn't feel they had enough information in them just facts stated. Try to make sentences flow a little better, not so much data in one phrase. Try to use transition sentences between each paragraph to make the paper flow better. Touch up on paragraphs, extend on the last two. Repeat information if need be.
Mechanics = 5/ 5 pts.

0 - Report does not include a Reference section.
Strengths and constructive comments about report's organization:
Did not notice any major typos or misspellings, maybe just double check one more time. References look correct, right format. Not sure how many references were needed, maybe find one or two more outside sources if possible?
Conclusion = 3/ 5 pts.
5-Conclusion reviews analysis of school, district and community and describes why findings should be important to reader.
4 - Conclusion reviews analysis of school, district and community.
3 - Conclusion does not refer back to report findings.
0 - No conclusion section is apparent.
Strengths and constructive comments about conclusion:
Conclusion could be longer. Talk about what you just described, point out highlights and down falls of school. Why is it a good choice? why is it a bad choice? Try and close everything up in the conclusion be a little more descriptive.
Creativity = 3/ 5 pts.
5 - Report is written in an engaging style.
4 - Report has some interesting sections.
3 - Report generally reports information without seemingly without purpose.
Strengths and constructive comments about information contained in report:
Add more writing and not so much numbers and data. Try to make it flow a little better by adding some of your own insight. seemed to lack interest, add interesting facts about school or district, personal thoughts about what you liked or didn't like.
Thoroughness = 6/10 pts

Not enough facts about the school, community, or district. Doesnt have to be just numbers or figures in each section. elongate each paragraph with much more detail and different facts in each section.
